Felipe Anderson and Robert Snodgrass have returned to training but both remain doubts.
There are no fresh injury concerns for Watford although Nigel Pearson will check on the fitness of a few unnamed players ahead of the trip to London Stadium.
Gerard Deulofeu (cruciate ligament), Daryl Janmaat (knee) and Isaac Success (Achilles) remain unavailable.

West Ham have won three of their last four Premier League meetings with Watford, as many as they had in their first nine such matches against them.
Michail Antonio has been involved in 78 per cent of West Ham’s goals since the season resumed, scoring six and assisting one. He netted all four goals in their 4-0 win at Norwich City last time out, doubling his Premier League tally for the season.

Troy Deeney has been directly involved in 23.8 per cent of Watford’s 273 Premier League goals, with 45 goals and 20 assists. Of all teams with at least 200 goals in the competition, only Joshua King with AFC Bournemouth (25.3 per cent) and Les Ferdinand for QPR (24.2 per cent) have had a hand in a higher share.
